This moment emerges deep within the Carnival — not as an explanation, but as a remembering. Let it find you wherever you are.

“This wasn’t about just her grief; it wasn’t about just her parents, not even the lives she had lived before this one.
She remembered the moment her Soul came into being.
The first time she chose separation.
The moment her Soul said Yes to forgetting, to the human path, to embodiment, aching and longing.
The moment her Soul began its journey of Remembering.

And the elephants, they knew. They had always known.
They were the holders of memory, the original record keepers.
Their bodies, vast and quiet, carried the stories of every grief not spoken, every song unsung, every soul who forgot their name.”
